Question for the week
|
Posted: 10/20/09 When you consider that we put our home on the market eighteen months ago, it’s been a long haul. In that time, the real estate market tanked, the mortgage market tanked, and the economy in general tanked. Yet, in the end, we managed to sell our home. No, we didn’t sell it at the price we’d hoped. Yes, we will have a mortgage at the new place, something we’d hoped to avoid had we sold at top dollar. No, we have no regrets. Yes, we’re eager to move on. Given our ages (65 and 74) this new home could be the last one we have complete control over, determining the flooring and the paint on the walls and the appliances. Choosing the cabinet styles and the countertops. With this in mind, I’ve taken extra care to make wise decisions. And, so far, everything has met our expectations. Isn’t it wonderful? Given the hassle we had with the process of selling our current residence, it’s so enjoyable to have a positive experience on the other end.
